Logitech Introduces G610 Orion Keyboards With Cherry MX Switches

Logitech, one of the leaders in the peripheral market, has two new mechanical keyboards it's introducing, both featuring Cherry MX switches. The Logitech G610 Orion Brown and Orion Red keyboards are a full-size design with white LED backlighting, media controls, and those Cherry MX switches. The Orion Brown has Cherry MX Brown switches, while the Orion Red has, you guessed it, Cherry MX Red switches. No matter which kind you're more comfortable with, Logitech has you covered. Each keyboard has a matte texture that should help cut down on visible fingerprints, a braided cable to last as long as the keyboard does, and white LED backlighting that can has brightness customized per each individual key. The lighting can also be set to show up only on certain keys, so you can easily see what keys are used during a game. You can also sync the lighting with the Logitech Gaming Software (LGS) across your other Logitech G devices for a truly custom look. LGS also lets you set up macros across the F1-12 keys, providing extra uses outside of games and programs that use just a handful. Media controls feature a volume roller and buttons to play, pause, mute, and skip tracks.

The Logitech G610 Orion Brown and Orion Red should be available later this month for $119 in the U.S. or €139 in Europe.
